The Mitsuoka Like (雷駆) is a five-door hatchback electric car produced by the Japanese automaker Mitsuoka Motors since 2010. It is based on the Mitsubishi i MiEV.
It was unveiled in 2010 and was discontinued in 2012. The wheelbase was extended to help accommodate five passengers, unlike the i Miev, which only seats four. Its distinctive front styling separates it from other rebadged i Mievs, including the Citroen C-Zero and the Peugeot Ion. It was priced at USD 55,000, before a Japanese tax credit, which lowered the priced to USD 14,550.
The name "Like" is an indirect romanization of Raiku (雷駆, literally "thunder drive"), which is a portmanteau of 雷 (thunder, referring to its electric powertrain) and 駆 (drive, more specifically drivetrain).
